sad and happy at the same time..

Posted by Johanna Kerby on May 27, 2010 at 12:55 AM

My oldest son, Levi, is graduating in a few days and I have been having some mixed feelings.  I am sure this happens to every parent, but this is all new to me.  I am thrilled that I have raised such an independent, well behaved young man who is ready to go out on his own and start his life, but I am so sad to be losing him from under my wing.  I have been tearing up every time I think about him going off to college this August because I am going to miss him so much.  I have been so blessed to have been chosen to be his momma.  I realize that he doesn't belong to me but to God.  Still, it is hard to let go.  I'm sure he will always let me know what is going on with his life because we are extremely close and can talk about anything.  I have enjoyed watching him grow up and will continue to support him in whatever he decides to become....  We have had a blast and have enjoyed the whole experience of seeing him take his first step to rocking out at his senior prom. I'm sure we have many other great things to experience together but it will never be quite the same again.  Like I said....sad and happy at the same time!!  Sniff...sniff... Now just three more to go!!

Hi, I have 4 sons and I am very proud of all of them, it was very hard when they all left home and went to college, and then on later to get married. But we have to let go. Your Levi sounds terrific!! Love Linda
